Suspect in active shooter situation at OH high school in custody

Just before 8 a.m. (CT), people were being asked to avoid the areas of South High Street and Southgate Drive.

Columbus Police said they were called about an active shooter at 8:33 a.m. and arrested a suspect by 8:58 a.m. Police Chief Kimberley Jacobs praised a school employee who managed to calm the armed teen down before he was taken into custody, according to CBS News. Abdullahi may face other charges, police said.

At this time, it's unclear if the gunman is a student at the school or if any shots were fired.

The suspect was arrested less than a half-hour later and is now being questioned.

An active shooter situation is ongoing at a high school in Columbus, Ohio.

The school's vision statement says, "The Columbus Scioto family will collaborate effectively, with students, staff, families and stakeholders by implementing specific strategies that impact the personal and professional development of 21st century citizens Our highly qualified staff will provide student-centered instruction in a non-coercive, highly structured environment".
